Drone Simulator Developer (Unity)

Job Description

Drone Simulator Developer (Unity & Unreal Engine)

• IPage Group is hiring a full-time Drone Simulator Developer to work on a production-grade drone training and simulation platform. This role focuses on building real-time, physics-based drone simulation systems using both Unity and Unreal Engine.
• The developer will be responsible for implementing accurate multirotor flight behavior, integrating real-world controls, and developing training and mission scenarios used in drone pilot training and industry applications.
• This is not a game development role. Candidates must have hands-on experience with simulation and real-time physics.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain drone simulator modules using Unity and Unreal Engine
• Implement real-time drone flight physics including thrust, drag, gravity, torque, and inertia
• Build multirotor behavior for takeoff, landing, hovering, yaw, pitch, and roll
• Integrate joystick, RC controller, keyboard, and mouse inputs
• Develop training scenarios and simulator workflows
• Implement collision detection, terrain interaction, and altitude handling
• Optimize performance for stable real-time simulation
• Debug and refine physics behavior for accuracy and consistency
• Work closely with drone trainers and technical teams

Required Skills

• Strong experience in Unity (C#)
• Strong experience in Unreal Engine (Blueprint and or C++)
• Solid understanding of real-time physics systems
• Experience with physics-based movement, not animation-driven motion
• Strong grasp of vectors, forces, transforms, and time-based updates
• Ability to write clean and maintainable code

Preferred Skills

• Knowledge of drone or UAV flight dynamics
• Experience with PID control systems
• Hardware controller integration experience
• Background in simulators, training systems, or serious games
• Experience with aviation, robotics, or vehicle simulation

Education

• B.Tech, B.E, M.Tech, MCA, B.Sc, BCA in Computer Science, Electronics, Robotics, Aerospace, or related fields
• Equivalent practical experience will be considered

Experience

• 2 to 6 years of experience in Unity and Unreal-based simulation or real-time systems
• Previous work on drone, flight, or vehicle simulation is strongly preferred

Who Should Apply

• Developers passionate about drone technology and simulators
• Engineers interested in aviation-grade training platforms
• Candidates seeking long-term growth in simulation and drone ecosystems
• Developers who enjoy solving physics and real-time behavior problems

What We Offer

• Work on a production-grade drone simulator platform
• Exposure to real Drone training and industry workflows
• Long-term role with technical ownership
• Opportunity to grow into lead simulator or architect roles
• Competitive compensation based on skill and experience
